I'm trying hard to be non-co-dependent so yesterday my BP BF had his 2nd pdoc appt. I didnt go(uugghh). OK, this should be ok. He's a big boy and its HIS illness. He should be able to go on his own. Well he called me after. He told me she increased his lithium. I immediately(in my head) started freaking out. Why didnt I go? I needed to talk to her before she increases anything. Kevin may not have explained things the "right way"(all this in my head). THEN I ask him when he's supposed to have the lithium level drawn again and does he have the prescription. He says 1 wk and he didnt get a script. NOW I start putting my anxiety on him-"Why didnt you get the script, you know you cant get your blood drawn without it? I cant believe this" Just rantin and ravin which he did not need. THEN he also didnt get the script for the increase in the lithium AND he gave her the wrong name for our primary care doc. So naturally being that he's BP me flipping out made him get angry and it was just turned into a bad day. None of these issues were things that could not be taken care of. I let my need to control(if I dont do it-its not done right) get the best of me, therefore causing an arguement between him and I. The pdoc called me last nigtht bc she likes to touch base with me as well. I simply then gave her the pharmacy phone number and the name and # of our primary care doc, and asked her to mail the script for the blood drawn. Taken care of. Why did I freak out? I fell off the wagon. But I'm trying to learn from my mistakes -just thought I'd share. Thanks for listening guys. |
